• Extra informatie: A detailed historical and analytical study of the U.S. presidency by Edward S. Corwin (1897-1982). He traces the evolution of the office from its creation in the Constitution to the mid-20th century, analyzing its powers, limitations, and the changing role of the president in American political life. This book was published in the aftermath of World War II, when the U.S. presidency was increasingly seen as a central figure in both domestic and global politics. The presidential powers had grown significantly, particularly with the expansion of the executive branch during Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal and wartime leadership. Corwin's study comes at a time when questions regarding presidential authority were being debated in the context of national security, legislative power, and the boundaries of executive action. This influential work was praised for its scholarly rigor and is a landmark in American constitutional law and political science studies.
